Jupiter’s iconic Great Red Spot has persisted for at least 190 years and is likely a different spot from the one observed by the astronomer Giovanni Domenico Cassini in 1665, a new study reports. The Great Red Spot we see today likely formed because of an instability in the planet’s intense atmospheric winds, producing a long, persistent atmospheric cell, the study also finds.
